  • Runaway Joe/ Where is Jon. Interminable

    Documentary on 1 is normally well put together and entertaining.

    Runaway Joe and Where is Jon however, are melodramatic, badly edited and drawn out instead of maintaining the usual high standards we have come to expect from RTE’s Doc on One. It sounds instead like the dross found in dumbed-down American made Gen-Z podcasts. Disappointing!
